This whole M4a vote is really just pissing me off. It gets traction than out of the wood work comes people like siorta saying that this is dangerous. And trying to toss water on it.

I'm over wonkery. I'm over committee chairs. This is the talk of political nerd losers.

Pelosi should not be the speaker and the dems should lose control of the house. That honestly would be better for the left and the nation in the long term than just rubber stamping her shit leadership.

    Our very own chapo hosts were doing just that today. They've been wealthy long enough for the pundit brain to kick in

        Or we can continue the fight in an avenue that doesn't rely on electoral politics. It's not nihilistic, but a recognition of a change of tactics and focus.

      Yeah. I just listened to it.

      Its just the same shit. We need a movement but no not on this or not this guy. It's too performative. Etc etc. Of we had a real movement under that chuck Sanders.

      Like fuck off.

        The episode wasn't even wonkery though. Do actual politics, do local labor organizing or tenant organizing or mutual aid or anything that isn't dwelling on what gets what votes in the electoral sphere. Whatever happens there in congress votes for m4a won't have the power to achieve anything at this time, so don't dwell on it so much.

        Or dwell on it if you want, but do the other stuff anyways.
